Pendlebury

Why does that matter? He broke the rules so should face the same consequences as everyone else.

An 18 year old gets a week or 2 for that 10 times out of 10.

Maybe they should cite their Year 2 school results to show they were an exemplary student who never got disciplined.

That should work.

I know I can’t post without bias…

But if you run at a player who’s standing still, they brace for impact and you get knocked out is the said player receiving weeks? I actually don’t know what Pendles was suppose to do?

I agree with this and personally I don’t think it should be anything. But the it’s a football action has not stood up for years now as a defence.
Many just stick standard football actions have been handed down as suspensions because someone got injured.
Maybe a fine is the right outcome?? But the football act defence just simply has no place anymore in today’s game.

Totally agree. I don't even think it's worth a fine. If you watch it at real speed he just braces to protect himself. There's going to be accidents, and players shouldn't automatically be found guilty everything there's a head clash.

But they have been and will be again this year.

Pendles is a clean ball player, he wouldn't hurt a fly, this whole process was a disgrace sullying the great man's sporting reputation

No part of his reputation has been tarnished in anyway shape or form.

Not his fault that his basketball background taught him to do that.

Eddie having a long winded whinge that Pendles got a fine, I sure he would do the same if it was Toby Greene.

Player not found

Tribunal trolled Spendlebury by giving him a fine after he lost 3 mill and has no money left.
